What we can do is instead of making new posts, edit old pages and add in hot pics. The mods probably wont click on older pages. We just need some code word to signal which pages we are editing.

Whoever is reporting the images has been trolling for some time now. Again, any attractive woman can be deleted regardless of pose or amount of clothing at the whim of the one who is trolling or mod. The standard is equivalent to rolling dice. Any mod trying to say otherwise merely needs to look at the last four or so pages.

I am semi-back.

Any picture that I perceive to be an attempt to push the limits I have written in the sticky will be deleted, likely without further explanation. I have deleted several. It has already been explained and I, for one, am not willing to waste words saying the same thing over again. If you want action taken for pictures in this or another thread, just report the post and an evaluation will be made.

Bottom line: don't try to push the limit on "hawt chix" posts, and you won't get suspended. Push it, and you might. It's really that simple. And it's not up for discussion. In the time I have been away, some people have gotten away with some things that shouldn't have happened. So be it. But know that further complaining, sarcasm, whining, attempting to push the limits, or other jerk-ish behavior around this policy, either in this thread or elsewhere, will result in punitive measures.

*sigh* Ben, time and time again people have told you the real problem. Clarity. Your the admin/main mod/gurugod/whatever the fuck, fine run with it, but with that title comes a responsibility to the group/community as a WHOLE (not just to your insider friends and/or mods) to specify WHY you do things and WHY you take actions.

You jump the shark on photos in THIS thread, but the HOt or Not threads have far more risque images and they were being run for years.

If you want a forum where the only people around to post are Christian thinking overly prudish and agree with you regularly then this board is dead.

I came here over a decade ago and found a haven of ALL types of people. We had something in common, unfortunately for us that common ground is dead and buried as well. (or might as well be)

If this community is going to live on with more than a baker's dozen of active posters you can't stomp everything flat that falls outside your personal views of what is right good and proper. This board is not YOU, it has never been YOU and to survive must never be YOU. it must be everyone, sharing and acting alike and trusting in the people in charge to be fair evenhanded AND Explanatory.

If you can't or refuse to do that then you need to rethink your own role here. For the good of the community.

I think Ben is causing himself WAY more trouble than he needs to in this case. I've been a mod before on three other boards with far more members than this one. Anytime a mod deleted a post, an automated message was generated giving the specific rule being broken that triggered removal. The poster knew immediately why it was removed (didn't have to like it necessarily), but it was clear what had occurred.

Perhaps OS doesn't have this tool. If they don't, they really should create it in a hurry.

and I would agree with that, however many people find images with hot women in them to BE cool. Then there is the point that images of naked men and or appendages are left here. Are they cool?

The point being one single person cannot dictate that to the community. One opinion doesn't make a standard.

What Ben considers "pushing the limits" is a very broad spectrum and is stated that way so he can simply say "its been explained" and walk away from his responsibility as the Moderator.

If its not worth his "time" as he says to do his job properly, then he needs to step back and take on a different role here. He's not doing anyone any good doing a half assed job.

See now THIS is what I see as the problem at its roots.

Ben WANTS to see something wrong with pretty much any photo he gets told about or sees for himself. Which leads to eliminating perfectly innocent photos which are safe on pretty much EVERY website (golfers for frakks sake??) I believe he goes into every interaction here in recent years with a predisposition to the negative instead of taking a rational appraisal for himself because "its not worth his time" to actually think a situation through.

I think Ben has already thought the situation through. Frequent posters in this thread keep trying to find the line of the hottest picture they can find that won't be deleted. Once that line is determined, they will push just a little bit farther and then demand an explanation of why one was OK but the other wasn't. Ben looks to be deleting pictures that attempt to define that line so people will eventually stop the definition and escalation cycle.

It is rather impressive how much stubbornness is on display in this thread.

Is it a reading comprehension issue?

1. Risqué pictures can lead to some members being banned from visiting here by their employer.
2. Non-risqué pictures hosted on certain sites can lead to some members being banned from visiting here by their employer.
3. Ben (and/or other mods) WILL remove anything that even approaches either of these two rules that he sees, in an effort to preserve every person's privilege to post/view here.
4. The mods don't have nearly enough time to check every post ever made on this forum, therefore not every picture gets immediately deleted.

This seems neither draconian nor hard to understand. I think I must be missing something regarding the massive outrage here.

Yes it is puzzling how juvenile the "resistance" becomes on this issue. Every picture of women on the last two pages were obviously posted to test where the line is. The only reason that the issue seems to get popular support from the "anti Ben" crowd is because most of the board doesn't give a shit or post in this thread.

The moderations and bannings are very inconsistant but I remember my dad talking to me after I got in trouble with a substitute when I was in junior high. I said that I really didn't do anything and other kids were doing more. He said that a sub isn't going to go out of their way if you are doing nothing so just don't do anything and you won't get in trouble. Seems pretty sensible doesn't it?

Or you can post a half naked chick that is available all over the internet, get banned or leave FOFC, and then in 6 months realize life goes on at FOFC and nobody really cares about your Ghandi-like stand that you took.

And this is almost certainly one of the most significant annoyances about the whole tempest in a teapot.

That seems like it ought to fall under the category of "your problem" (the royal "you" in this case) rather than "everyone's problem". And having other people's problems rain on someone's fun is often less than popular.

Are there seriously that many people whose boss would be fine with them bullshitting on a video game forum on company time but would consider a stray bikini a major offense? Srsly?

If so, no wonder this country is so f'ed up.

Yes, both you and Brian are missing the part where its neither well thought through or even given a seconds consideration.

The real issue isn't the posts themselves, as MANY peole have stated OVER and OVER again.

The issue is the person or persons who are deleting things and boxing people aren't giving to seconds of honest thought to the situation because "its not worth their time".

That statement on its own merits should disqualify ANYONE from being a moderator. If you want to moderate a board (which I do, in several places) then you have to give the TIME that the job requires. I've given up modding position several times including one with the HFL here because I simply didn't have the time to do the job properly and fairly.

You have to stop falling back on an argument no one is making. The community needs, and DESERVES moderators who have the time and the obvious interest to do the job properly. And no matter how many times Ben repeats "Its been explain" that doesn't mean you simply delte and box and whatever else to the active users without SOME SORT of explanation as to why. Even if it is cutting and pasting "rule number 235000 was broken".

Its that LACK clarity that causes 99.99% of the drama.

You have to stop falling back on an argument no one is making. The community needs, and DESERVES moderators who have the time and the obvious interest to do the job properly.

I don't think it's unfair to ask "why"? And by that I mean "why do you believe they 'deserve' those?"

As long as those users are content to come under the current conditions (for the sake of discussion let's just stipulate that management is largely disinterested) then, well, we get the form of government we "deserve".

I suspect that - for both mods & users - there's no small percentage of people who would actually consider the eventual demise of FOFC as much a relief as anything.

Is it a reading comprehension issue?

1. Risqué pictures can lead to some members being banned from visiting here by their employer.


The problem is, what is risqué? Is a photo from the superbowl halftime show or a olympic hurdler warming up that were both shown on network tv risqué? Sure there are a few people here that like toeing the line, but I think most of us are confused as to what state the line is even in. How about a pic of fighter plane? Is that machine designed to kill people risqué? How about roadkill? Is a picture of Michael Phelps in a swimsuit risqué? How about Kate Upton in a swimsuit?

The community just seems to be asking for consistency and some communication when things need to be removed. If the moderators do not have the time or ability to provide that, then I think the choices are either to get new moderators or slowly watch the community die.

Obviously people enjoy coming here, otherwise the exodus from this board would be quick and silent.

The why is pretty simple really. its what the job of a moderator entails. The difference between thriving communities and failing ones is directly the management.

As for the eventual demise I have to agree, its probably going to die a low death anyway. I still take umbrage with the management either directly or through disinterest causing that demise any sooner that absolutely necessary.

The other issue being that the community on the whole has no say what so ever in the management "government" so we cannot "deserve" what we get as we had so say in creating or affecting it.

ANyway, someone post some cool pictures. I'm tired of typing today.

Merriam - Webster defines prurient as ": marked by or arousing an immoderate or unwholesome interest or desire; especially : marked by, arousing, or appealing to sexual desire "

By that definition & the admonition we got earlier, I'm guessing that bikini pics of Dr. Ruth, Kathy Griffin and Hillary Clinton are okay. And maybe Kathy Bates.

Beyond that, I guess it's poster beware.

Perhaps the main failing is attempting to remove prurience entirely because everyone desires different things. Just because Ben doesn't lust after kathy bates doesn't mean others don't.

Are there seriously that many people whose boss would be fine with them bullshitting on a video game forum on company time but would consider a stray bikini a major offense? Srsly?

If so, no wonder this country is so f'ed up.

I endorse this thought.

I work at home and have my personal rig next to my work rig, I only come here on break time from home and never on my work computer, whether home or in the office.

The problem is, what is risqué?

I actually DON'T think this is the problem, and I think that's the disconnect between the two sides. There is no 'line.' If someone has a problem with something and it's reported, it's gone. No questions asked.

Whether or not an employer wants someone to be browsing an Internet forum or not on their own time is irrelevant. As Ben mentioned, the majority of the traffic on the site (by a huge margin) is driven during work hours. Things that eliminate users' abilities to post during that time are no bueno. Ergo, no line.

I get all of the arguments about inconsistency and the definition of risque, but at the same time, I have not been surprised by one picture deletion or boxing that has resulted from them. If we are all honest with ourselves, I'd bet that the people posting the pictured that get deleted know then will get deleted. I wouldn't argue against having a reason posted, but I am quite sure that won't give me any information I didn't already have.

If I perceive that the primary reason for posting the pic is "ZOMFG LOOK HOW HAWT SHE LOOKS," then it's gone. As I said pages and pages ago in this thread:

"Just don't post anything remotely prurient, and you won't have any problems."

It is ironic that for quite a while, QS was enforcing the rule that the top of the page must contain a prurient photo, which i didn't go along with. I wonder if operation sports started clamping down?

Merriam - Webster defines prurient as ": marked by or arousing an immoderate or unwholesome interest or desire; especially : marked by, arousing, or appealing to sexual desire "

I am semi-back.

Any picture that I perceive to be an attempt to push the limits I have written in the sticky will be deleted, likely without further explanation. I have deleted several. It has already been explained and I, for one, am not willing to waste words saying the same thing over again. If you want action taken for pictures in this or another thread, just report the post and an evaluation will be made.

Bottom line: don't try to push the limit on "hawt chix" posts, and you won't get suspended. Push it, and you might. It's really that simple. And it's not up for discussion. In the time I have been away, some people have gotten away with some things that shouldn't have happened. So be it. But know that further complaining, sarcasm, whining, attempting to push the limits, or other jerk-ish behavior around this policy, either in this thread or elsewhere, will result in punitive measures.

Ya know, sure there are pictures in this thread that are all about "look at her boobs and look at her butt", but really, a majority of the pictures of females posted are genuinely beautiful. And I get that we're all probably popping boners to one degree or another but it's kind of sad that a community of adults can't just share and discuss pictures of women or that they're somehow viewed as more vulgar than any of the other types of pictures posted. I can go to TheHun and see tons of great pictures of nude women but there is a real level of quality to a lot of the pictures posted here that are A) Not Pornographic and B) Quite a remarkable level of female beauty.

I have a point, but I'm prone to rambling.

Is it a reading comprehension issue?
It's a comprehension issue, not a reading comprehension issue.
1. Risqué pictures can lead to some members being banned from visiting here by their employer.
FALSE: There are numerous other threads that contain risque pictures. For reasons that have not yet been fully explained, this thread is one in which this rule is enforced. It is very easy to find other threads which are advertised clearly as having risque photos that have not been censored. If members are banned from visiting here by their employer, it is more likely that the employer doesn't want their employees jacking around on a message board when they should be working.
2. Non-risqué pictures hosted on certain sites can lead to some members being banned from visiting here by their employer.
FALSE. If anyone bothered to notice, the domain for this site is Operation Sports | Madden NFL 13 | NCAA Football 13 | NBA 2K13 | MLB 13 The Show (http://www.operationsports.com). Very few if any automated programs will prohibit access to a subfolder but allow access to the main folder. This site is judged by content across OperationSports.com. Unless this policy is enforced across all OS forums (which it clearly is not), then any images hosted on certain sites on any OS page would impact the viewing of FOFC.
3. Ben (and/or other mods) WILL remove anything that even approaches either of these two rules that he sees, in an effort to preserve every person's privilege to post/view here.
FALSE. If you can't find risque images in other threads, you're not looking hard enough.
4. The mods don't have nearly enough time to check every post ever made on this forum, therefore not every picture gets immediately deleted.
FALSE. Many threads are clearly advertised as having risque photos and have widespread moderation participation. Posters in this thread were at one time admonished by a well respected moderator for NOT posting a risque photo.
This seems neither draconian nor hard to understand. I think I must be missing something regarding the massive outrage here.
No one says it's draconian, it's just stupid and arbitrary. Here are the real truths:

1. If the moderators wish to increase transparency, create a stickied, closed thread in the Off-Topic forum that posts each reported post. Right now, most members assume the reportings are fictional or from misinformed members who don't understand how Internet filtering software works.

2. If you are blocked from FOFC or fear you may be blocked from FOFC, it is likely due to the fact that your employer wants you working and not jacking off on the Internet. I've worked for a company that blocked Facebook and other social networking sites. If your goal is to circumvent your employer's desire that you work while using their Internet, computer and other resources on your job, you're not exactly occupying a moral high ground.

3. If you are fearful your employer may see you viewing inappropriate content by view a thread, answer this: do you think your employer would approve of you viewing the text of this forum while working?

Anytime someone argues that a picture of a female golfer is going to lead to this forum being blocked by Internet filters has a fundamental lack of knowledge of how the Internet works.

Bucc, I don't think that is the case. I think the time spent may vary by mod, but I think most hours of the day you'll find one or more here. (Granted, the last week is an exception for Ben given his new arrival.)

What I think is true is that none of us read every single thread, and I think that accounts for some inconsistencies. At some point you have to rely on the community for things like post reports. And, I think the community does a pretty good job of that. For the most part, things work well and but for people's complaints about this thread (or differences between this thread and others) the board is modded pretty consistently. I will say there is likely one exception and that is that posters who have "earned their stripes" may get a longer leash than newer posters. In part, that's human nature. In part, though it is because there are other ways to reach those posters.

I will use Subby as an example. I communicate with Subby in variety of ways off the board. On more than one occasion, I've sent him an e-mail or a note somewhere else to tell him to cool his jets. He has always done so. People may not like that or think it shows favoritism or whatever, but that's just the nature of the beast.

People seem to doubt what I wrote yesterday about the number of posts reported or think that there is some hiding of the ball there. There really isn't. I will try to post (while protecting anonymity) a summary of reported posts on a regular basis if that is something people would like. I think you will be underwhelmed.

I am semi-back.

Any picture that I perceive to be an attempt to push the limits I have written in the sticky will be deleted, likely without further explanation. I have deleted several. It has already been explained and I, for one, am not willing to waste words saying the same thing over again. If you want action taken for pictures in this or another thread, just report the post and an evaluation will be made.

Bottom line: don't try to push the limit on "hawt chix" posts, and you won't get suspended. Push it, and you might. It's really that simple. And it's not up for discussion. In the time I have been away, some people have gotten away with some things that shouldn't have happened. So be it. But know that further complaining, sarcasm, whining, attempting to push the limits, or other jerk-ish behavior around this policy, either in this thread or elsewhere, will result in punitive measures.

You realize you're asking to get boxed, right?Yeah...pretty obvious one there.

Ben E Lou
04-10-2013, 08:28 AM
One clarification that is apparently still necessary despite it being policy for at least 8 1/2 years, maybe more:3. Please be careful about posting pictures in a thread, even if they are pictures from a legit site like ESPN. Think of the FOFCer who is surfing sitting at the desk at his office.*

*--And before you say, "Well, they shouldn't be surfing at work," consider that there are those who are allowed to surf the 'net during "down-times" at work, but if someone walks by and there's a picture of a woman in a bikini/underwear/skimpy clothes, they may get called into question.
It has nothing to do with my personal morality or even my personal situation. (I work from home.) My opinion on this matter hasn't changed in dang near a decade, and isn't going to change. You're wasting your time arguing on that point.

I didn't get into that piece of it as I don't think anyone has been arguing against that particular component lately. But that's also mentioned in the policy. It's been a long time (~10 years) since that piece first came on my radar, so I don't recall all the specifics and individuals, but it sounds familiar that you were one of the people who caused me to make the original post in late 2003 that is heavily quoted in the current sticky:

So, when I was a kid, there was only 1 place to really play basketball (unless we wanted to hike a dozen miles to the school). The hoop was in this one kids driveway.

The neighborhood kids played alot of football and baseball in the empty lots and whatnot, but if we wanted to play basketball, we had to go to this kids house. Normally, there would be a dozen or so kids that wanted to play basketball games. But, the kid with the hoop (and his couple close buddies) always just wanted to play H.O.R.S.E.

So, the rest of the kids were stuck playing HORSE ... or finding something else to do.

Why then did you repeatedly post risque photos, soon after show up as "banned", but then continue to post (in the midst of people complaining about your "banning")? I guess the only other possibility is that someone intended to ban you but there was a system bug.

Edit: Earlier, you did explain that it happened because you were "bored at work", so, it was clearly trolling, I'm just wondering how you went about doing it.

Which would be a bit out of character for Jphillips, but when I first saw the post, it did look like an insult for about 2 second before I realized the context. NorvTurner responded and called Jphiliips a "fu**ing retard". And was clearly not quoting Mike Rice. So it was a legit personal attack, though one that started from a misunderstanding.

The pic was posted solely for the purpose of pointing out double standards is an attempt to highlight the bafflingly different standards of the moderating in this thread as it relates to pictures of different genders. Men = OK. Women = Verboten. Perhaps by seeing the double standard in such a clear light, it might helpt to advance the discussion to come up with a reasonable, intelligent and consistent moderating standard.

If someone wants to consider that an attempt to provoke, that's certainly within their right to do so. Interpretation is always dependent upon the receiver.

That pic by molson is what this thread is all about!

Only if I delete it and get a mod to to change my title to "banned" just for hilarity of the ensuing drama and boxings, THEN that pic will be what this thread is all about!

The pic was posted solely for the purpose of pointing out double standards is an attempt to highlight the bafflingly different standards of the moderating in this thread as it relates to pictures of different genders. Men = OK. Women = Verboten. Perhaps by seeing the double standard in such a clear light, it might helpt to advance the discussion to come up with a reasonable, intelligent and consistent moderating standard.

If someone wants to consider that an attempt to provoke, that's certainly within their right to do so. Interpretation is always dependent upon the receiver.

You off to the United States beaches to rail about topless men after that? The double standard is society not a moderating thing.

At what point did this thread turn into Jezebel, exactly?

Except no one is posting pics of women's tits here. False equivalence is false.
